◆ getNumberOfParticlesCrossedForw()

unsigned int FluxBoundary::getNumberOfParticlesCrossedForw ( ) const

Gets the number of particles that have crossed the boundary.

Returns the number of particles that have crossed in either direction. All of these quantities have to be divided by two, because DPMBase.cc calls DPMBase::checkInteractionWithBoundaries() TWICE in each time step. (The intention is that the first round resolves InsertionBoundaries and the second resolves DeletionBoundaries, but this means FluxBoundaries are updated twice.)

◆ scaleFactor_

Mdouble FluxBoundary::scaleFactor_

This is the factor to rescale the given normal vector to a unit vectors.

NB: Not only the normal vector is rescaled by this factor, also the 'distance' from the origin of the boundary is scaled by this factor! Also, once the boundary position is set with FluxBoundary::set(), the arguments of any reset of the distance_ property (i.e. usage of FluxBoundary::move()) will be rescaled by the same factor!
